Mt.Tokachidake (Mt.Tokachi) 92
Temperature: minus 15 degrees Celsius at the Tokachidake Hot Springs (Tokachidake Onsen).
The climbing was fast because he was in form as he was doing the training frequently last few days. At 1050m of altitude, a French skier addressed him in French asking if he is French as he wore jerseys of a French team. He responded no and talked with him in French for a while. After the interval training at the summit, he started the descent. During the descent, he met a group of American skiers he had met several days before. He couldn’t speed on the descent because of the muddy fresh snow. He rode the most of parts at less than 40km/h.
